She wondered why she hadn't seen Anthony leave his office.She knew that Anthony usually closed by 5 pm and left the company before 6 pm, which was the company's normal closing hour.Similarly, she made her way toward Anthony's office door to find out what was still delaying her boss, as it was already after 6 pm, and most of the staff had gone home.Approaching Anthony's office door, Lerisa knocked and heard him respond, “Come in.”She pushed Anthony's office door slightly open, stepped into his office, and saw him seated on his executive office chair, staring at a red ring box in his hand

Mark exited Anthony's office immediately, shutting the door behind him.Mark already knew that Lerisa had a crush on Anthony, which was why she rejected his love proposal.He shook his head in denial after seeing Anthony holding Lerisa closely by her arms, confirming to him that they were secret lovers pretending to be siblings in front of the other staff.“Lerisa..." Anthony called her name again, making her shudder in his hold and snap out of her trance, as he was still holding her arms closely.Anthony knew Lerisa was not in a relationship, so he wondered what had made her look sad and if someone had broken her heart or was troubling her."What's wrong with you? Don't tell me it's nothing when you look this s

What happened at the office today? Why does your face look so red?"Lerisa stopped and replied, "Nothing, Mom, I'm fine."Mrs. Antonia sighed and dismissed Lerisa."That's alright; hurry up and come join your father and me for dinner.”“Okay, Mom,” Lerisa replied, darting into the corridor as she went to her room to take a bath.She stepped into her room and shut the door.

Anthony continued to think about why Lerisa wasn't happy, as he didn't have any siblings and had always seen her as a sister.He sighed and focused on the road, driving home. Soon, he arrived and drove into the garage before getting out of his car and walking up to their mansion.“Good evening, Mom and Dad,” Anthony greeted his parents as he entered the living room and saw them sitting in the dining room.His mother smiled and replied first, “Welcome home, Anthony. How was work today?”“Fine, Mother,” Anthony said, walking toward the stairs to go to his bedroom. However, his mother spoke up, “Wait, Anthony, won't you join us for dinner before heading to your room?”Anthony paused, looked back at his mother, and replied, “Okay, Mom. How's the birthday preparation going? We'll celebrate it here in the event hall tomorrow.”Anthony went to the dining room to join his parents.

Lerisa finished dinner with her parents in the dining room. With none of her siblings at home, she stood up, locked the house entrance door, and returned to her bedroom to sleep.She went into her bedroom, picked up her phone, and saw that it was after 10 p.m. She was surprised to see many missed calls from Anthony, so she immediately called him back to find out why he had called.When the call connected, she spoke first: “Hello, Anthony.”Anthony was still in his bedroom, preparing to have dinner with his parents before returning to sleep.He saw his phone ringing, noticed it was Lerisa, and answered.“Hey, Lerisa. I called earlier to check if you got home safely and if you're alright now.”"Yeah, I'm fine now. Thanks for checking," Lerisa replied.

Anthony finally looked back at Lerisa's face and said, "I have to go home now, Lerisa.

See you later this evening."Lerisa's pretty, fair face turned sad again as she remembered that Anthony would propose to Clara that evening.

What's bothering you? You can share anything with me. You know I care about you, and I know you don't have many friends aside from me.You don't have a boyfriend, or maybe you do, and I just haven't met him.
